In the still quiet of his pocket dimension, Roy sat beneath the great oak beside the glowing pond — the air shimmering with the pulse of magic from the Hufflepuff Cup. The golden mist of the realm whispered with vitality, herbs swaying like they knew their creator was thinking.
A sleek Firebolt hovered in front of him, slowly rotating — its handle reflecting the violet light of the artificial sun overhead.
"Perfect balance, zero drag, stable at over two hundred kilometers per hour," Roy murmured, examining it. "Yet… only a dream for most wizards."
He leaned back against the tree, eyes closing.Since its release, the Firebolt had conquered the wizarding world — Quidditch teams, nobles, and rich merchants all clamored for one. It had made Liyue Broom Company a household name overnight.
But Roy was not satisfied.
"Two thousand five hundred galleons," he whispered. "For one broom. The average wizard barely makes a tenth of that in a year.""It's a noble's toy… not a symbol of freedom."
He thought back to Nicolas Flamel's words:"True alchemy isn't just about gold, Roy — it's about giving value to the world."
Roy snapped his fingers. A light-blue holographic chart appeared before him, listing broom companies across the wizarding world — Nimbus, Cleansweep, Comet, Bluebottle.
Nimbus dominated. Firebolt, though new, ruled the high end. But one name caught his attention.
Cleansweep.
Old. Respectable. Family-owned. Their brooms had spirit — reliable, simple, but stagnant.Roy smirked.
"Cleansweep… affordable, loyal, but stuck in tradition. What they need is innovation. What Liyue can give."
He began designing in his mind — a lighter frame, rune-infused stabilizers, cost-efficient levitation crystals that would reduce production costs by seventy percent.A broom not for the elite — but for everyone.
"If Firebolt is the blade of the sky…" he mused, "then Cleansweep will be its wings."
With that decision made, Roy took out enchanted parchment and began writing two letters in his elegant, runic handwriting.
To: Bela White (CEO, Liyue Enterprises)Cc: Narcissa Black (Co-CEO, Liyue Broom Division)
Subject: Acquisition Order — Cleansweep Broom Company
Bela, Narcissa —The Cleansweep company possesses both legacy and reach but lacks modernization. I want you to negotiate immediate acquisition — full buyout if possible, but maintain their public name. Merge it under the Liyue Broom brand as a secondary wing.
Our structure will be as follows:
Firebolt Division: Premium and Professional-tier models (High-end market).
Cleansweep Division: Affordable performance line (Common and Middle-class market).
I'll send you the prototype blueprints for the "Cleansweep X" model within a week — balanced speed, stability, and charm efficiency.
Our goal is simple: Every wizard deserves to fly.
— Roy ValvasOwner, Liyue Industries
He sealed both letters with his family crest — the twin phoenixes encircling a sword — and sent them through his system owl network.
Then he leaned back, staring up at the enchanted sky, a small smile playing on his lips.
"Let Nimbus have its pride," he murmured. "I'll take the world."
A ripple of laughter echoed through the pocket dimension as the phoenix spirit — his patronus familiar — soared above him, scattering trails of violet flame across the artificial dawn.
Roy closed his eyes, already imagining the day he'd walk through Diagon Alley and see both Firebolts and Cleansweeps carrying the same insignia — the Liyue mark of flight.
